Well...
Luber-finer filters have a national account program with Freighliner and Petro Truck stops.
They build filters for Detroit Diesel and Caterpillar to name but two truck engine OEM's they do business with. They also build John Deere, Mecury Marine, Kubota, and a few other non-car engine filters amounst others.
Yes, they are made by Champ.
And as such they are cheap junk to some opinionated people from these forums.
It was the Luber-finer heavy duty brand which got Donaldson into the truck engine filter business. Luber-finer made 95% of Donaldsons oil, fuel, and coolant filters. Donaldson has always made their own air filters and is the leader in OEM engine business for trucks.
So if another filter manufacturer can test Luber-finer and find them sufficient for Luber-finer to private label Donaldson ( which they do to this day), of course they're cheap junk. < Donaldson since then has added capacity to build some of the more popular truck engine filters. Some of that capacity is from Mexico >
At one point in time Luber-finer made the most popular filter for Fleetguard, who is owned by Cummins engine. Fleetguard had tooling production problems and asked Luber-finer to get them out of a jam until they could sort out their own problems. So Luber-finer built truckload after truckload of the top Fleetguard part number for Cummins engines. Ask yourself why Fleetguard/Cummins would go to Luber-finer to build their filter for them. ( It was because there wasn't much different between the two performance wise, and still isn't)
Luberfiner also work with Mobil Oil on their Delvac program where Mobil will warranty truck engines for 70,000 miles between oil changes if they use Delvac 1 oil, use oil anaylsis, and get a minimum fuel mileage #. Mobil is running some tests, and may have by now upped it, to 100,000 miles. Luber-finer builds the Delvac filter for Mobil ( which is also offered in the Luberfiner line as their XL filter-- Xtra Life)
OCI's for the truck engines vary from 12,500 to 15,000 miles.
Just the facts...
